"Sister, what are you doing?" Nie Han walked in.

"Close the door." Nie Xunhuan walked to the table with the box in her arms, put it gently on the table, and wiped off the thick dust on it with her hands.

Nie Han obediently closed the door, walked to her side, and exclaimed, "What is this? It looks very old. It feels the same as mom's dowry."

"This is mom's dowry," her slender fingers gently stroked the box. She didn't expect that there would be a day when she would really open this box. "When I was a child, I liked mom's things very much, and mom gave me the box for jewelry."

She found an antique brass key from the drawer and opened the lock on the box.

Nie Han was inexplicably nervous, as if this was a Pandora's box.

Nie Xunhuan gently opened the box, and there was something inside, wrapped in butter paper.

This kind of butter paper is moisture-proof and insect-proof, so there is no need to worry about the things inside being damaged.

Nie Han couldn't wait, "Sister, what is in it?"

Nie Xunhuan smiled, picked up the thing and opened the outer butter paper, and inside was a thick stack of passbooks, and they were from Citibank.

"This..." Nie Han was dumbfounded, she didn't expect there was such a thing at home.

"After my grandparents passed away, my mother had no intention of running the company they left behind, so she sold it. The money from the sale was deposited in Citibank, and this money is left for you and me." Nie Han stroked these passbooks, a heavy stack of maternal love.

Nie's father always thought that his wife sold the company because of poor management and losses.

"Mom is very foresighted, but if Dad knows about this, won't it ruin our relationship?" Nie Han was a little naive after all.

"There are naturally differences in closeness between husband and wife, especially since dad has a good sister. Mom is worried. What if the Nie family's property is really stolen by her? Will we, my sister and I, starve?" Nie Xunhuan knew that Nie's father was weak in character and valued brotherly love. He would never kill that woman.

But that woman's heart is made of iron, and she would not care about their life or death.

So it is understandable that she would keep some things in reserve.

She took these out today because she didn't want Nie Han to have any worries.

"Sister, what are you going to do with all this money?" Nie Han didn't quite understand, but he knew that Nie Xunhuan would not embezzle this property.

Nie Xunhuan hooked one hand around Nie Han's neck and said with a smile, "I have an engagement party tomorrow. How about we go to Hong Kong Disneyland the day after tomorrow?"

It happened that she went to the bank there to cash out these passbooks, and then deposited them into a bank card for Nie Han to use when he goes abroad to study in the future.

"Great!" Nie Han was naturally happy when he heard that they were going out to play.

But Nie Xunhuan made a gesture to silence him, "Huh, don't tell anyone, let's go secretly."

"Yeah!" Nie Han nodded. Of course he wouldn't tell anyone.

This time, even Momo wouldn't be told. What if that man showed up again!

Nie Xunhuan wrapped the passbooks with butter paper again, put them back in the box, locked the box and put it back to its original place.

Nie Han went back to her room to continue doing her homework. She changed into a casual outfit and went downstairs to have breakfast.

Aunt Zhao's cooking skills were always good. The wontons were soft and delicious. She ate slowly, put her phone aside, and browsed Weibo and the news.

While she was eating, Anya called.

"Xunhuan, the clothing store has delivered the dress to the company, but you are not here, how about I send it to you."

"Okay, my dad will also come home for lunch at noon, you can come with me." Nie Xunhuan thought to himself, it would be a good idea to let Anya come, so as to test Nie's father's reaction.

Anya smiled shyly, "Okay." After

the phone was hung up, Nie Xunhuan got up and went outside to find Aunt Zhao, telling her that the lunch today would be richer because there would be guests at home.

Aunt Zhao nodded, took off her apron, picked up her wallet and vegetable basket, and went out to buy food.

Nie Xunhuan put the finished soup bowl into the sink, took his cell phone and went back to his room.

Nie Xuewei had been hiding in the dark and eavesdropping. She didn't know who Nie Xunhuan had invited, but seeing how much she valued him, it might be a very important person.

If it was a man, she would have to behave well, but if it was a woman, then it would be meaningless.

It was almost noon, and Aunt Zhao had already prepared the food, waiting for Nie Xunhuan to say serve the food.

Nie Xuewei also joined in the fun and stayed in the living room early in the morning, wanting to see who it was.

Nie Han gave her a disgusted look. He also felt a little unhappy in his heart. He didn't understand why his sister had to find a woman for his father.

Just as he was thinking, there was a noise outside the door.

With a click, the door opened, and Father Nie and Anya came in from outside.

Anya was wearing a plain dress today, elegant and steady, holding a Chanel shopping bag in her hand, standing next to Father Nie, the two of them were a perfect match.

Nie Xuewei was sharp-eyed and recognized the big double "C" on the shopping bag at a glance. Her eyes were staring at it without moving away.

Nie Han despised her behavior, glanced at her coldly, and said nothing.

Nie Xunhuan stepped forward and took Anya's arm, walked into the living room, took the shopping bag from her hand, and asked Aunt Zhao to take it to the room.

Anya just glanced at Nie Xuewei lightly, knowing that her identity was not very welcome in the Nie family.

She didn't deliberately pick on him, but she didn't show too much enthusiasm either.

"Anya, let me introduce you, this is Nie Xuewei, the daughter of my father's sister." Nie Xunhuan introduced her generously, and he didn't seem as exclusive as he was in private.

Anya smiled, "Hello, Xuewei."

Nie Xuewei snorted coldly, arrogant and powerless.

Nie's father frowned, "Xuewei, don't be rude."

"She is just a wild girl with a mother but no father to teach her. It is normal for her to be rude." Nie Han did not forget to attack her.

Nie Xuewei's eyes flashed coldly, "Who are you talking about!"

"Xiao Han, who did you learn this from?" Nie Xunhuan frowned unhappily. She stared at Nie Han indifferently, and it seemed that she had neglected to educate Nie Han.

Nie Han hesitated for a moment, because he knew that Nie Xunhuan did not like boys to be vulgar.

Hiding the slight unhappiness in his peach blossom eyes, Nie Xunhuan smiled at Anya, "Let's go eat first."

Anya nodded and followed her to the restaurant.

The five of them sat down to eat together. Father Nie sat in the seat of the head of the family. Nie Xunhuan asked Anya and Nie Han to sit opposite, while she and Nie Xuewei sat on the other side. They

had just sat down and hadn't eaten a few bites when Father Nie looked at Nie Xunhuan and asked, "Are you going to attend Che Ranran's engagement party tomorrow?"
